Every modern woman shops everywhere for beauty, but for me it's mostly the airport or the drugstore.

Fashion should be fun and accessible.

In the mid-nineties, diversity in the fashion/beauty business was hard to come by.

There is absolutely a gap in the market for thirty something women and, the more I look at it, the more I feel there needs to be a sense of ease and choice.

Most women are dissatisfied with their appearance - it's the stuff that fuels the beauty and fashion industries.

Beauty should not be culturally relevant; it should be universal.

Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream.

What I find most upsetting about this new all-consuming beauty culture is that the obsession with good looks, and how you can supposedly attain them, is almost entirely female-driven.

Beauty and fashion are not really local anymore. You really have to be a global citizen to know what trends are. Now, it's pretty much the same designers and the same kind of trends, whether I am in New York, Milan, or Mumbai - it's the same.

I think of my customer as a woman who wants to look beautiful and be able to walk.
